About
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF PERFORMING ARTS
The National Academy of Performing Arts (N.A.P.A.) was established in 2006 in
response to the growing need for a production-based training institute on the Gold
Coast of Australia. Since then it has become one of the largest and most prestigious
performing arts academies, offering elite training in Music Theatre, Stage Acting,
Acrobatics, Jazz, Tap, Hip Hop, Lyrical and RAD Ballet.
NAPA began in 2006 with the vision of
“Artistically shaping future performers
to act out their dreams.”
This has been achieved through our
outstanding training in the performing
arts that meet professional standards
for youth between the ages of 3 and 18.
NAPA is different from other academies
in that we cater for all of the arts’
disciplines and we are a production
based company.
Our students not only can train in all
of the performing arts but they also
have many opportunities to be part of
full scale musicals, plays, competitions,
concerts and community events.
It’s time to make a move to our own premises
which will allow NAPA to reach its full
potential and allow our students to shine.

Student Scholarships

Junior, Intermediate, Senior, Open 1 Year
Scholarships Available.
In addition to our sponsorship packages we would
like to offer an exclusive sponsorship for each age
level. This will give a student in each age group the
opportunity to experience NAPA, and become part
of an outstanding performance community.
Ideally this student is someone that would not
normally have the opportunity to experience a
school with the calibre of NAPA, therefore the
amount shown will cover their classes, uniforms
and eisteddfod costumes for the duration of a year.
The awarding of scholarships will be done in
conjunction with the NAPA directors, and the
individual/company sponsoring the year level.
